I only ask because mine is setup exactly the same way just with 2" pipes. Did u notice a big difference in sound between 2" and 2 1/4" pipes? Mine doesn't sound quite as good as yours
Hey bro. Sounds great. So just to verify, u have stock manifolds, stock downpipes, stock front cats, rear cat delete,2 1/4" piping from there back to flowmaster 40s and dumped right after?
A lot of the old police cars don't have the molding on one or both doors because of decals that were on the car. I own a 2001 CVPI and I got lucky for one in good condition. The problem with getting these cars used is that they have usually been driven hard... really hard. Even if there are only 80,000 miles on the odometer, think of how many hours are actually on the engines if they were in the police service. Also, when they are stripped down, not much care is taken for the car's condition
@vicp71 fuck dont pay any more then $2000 for one unless its MINT and low mileage, here in canada we get the old rcmp ones sat usually around the 230,000 km range for $1000 and a real good example usually 1800-2000 tops. Some cars with like 130,000 on them go for 22-2300.
@vicp71 lol then why did he leave the rear door moulding on?? maybe he thinks it looks cool but, I dunno man I think it looks a little weird to have it on the rear and not the front ;P
@dopeymha o you will when its all finished i will be making a vid of it and putting it on here and my dad is painting it im guessing its costing me $250 to $300 since my dad is doing it its cheaper and ive been helping him with sanding its cool to learn.
put them steelies back on man. or get some bigger chrome rims i think those are kinda ugly. and try to find the solid red tailights instead of the ones with the blinker in em. and if you can find someone to do it delete your rear cat converter. sounds so much better and opens up some power.
@bschiffer i dont care for the cop black steel wheels i only use them for the winter and i will be getting better rims in time after i get my car repainted black again and im going to get the solid red taillights soon they look better and i already got the rear cats removed look at my new vids and ull see that i got rid of them and it does sound better and better performance.
very nice but it looks like it had 2 paint jobs done in the vid when the camera man walked fromthe back passenger to driver side door the color seemed off.
also out of curiosity when you aquired your p71 did you have to rewire the reverse lights. on my 2001 p71 the police dept messed it up to the point it didnt work?
@blackout000013 thanks and yea my dad had to repaint the door and fenders cause the fenders we replaced and the doors paint was bad but im getting the whole car repainted this summer nlack again and no i didnt have to rewire anything.
@vicp71 ah i thought it may have been black and white origonally and u wanted it black. lso did u ever open her up to see what she tops off at. i managed to get mine up to about 150 before i had toslow her down
@blackout000013 no it just got repainted in the front and the door thats y it looks off no the fastest i ever took it up to was 90 cause i dont want to get a ticket i have a clean recored and plan to keep it that way ill just take it to milan dragway one day.
Because if they were LED police lights you would need a permit to have that mounted on your car. its against the law to have tactical equipped lights without a permit.
Shit man. it looks and sounds great. i think im going to go for the cop look with teh lights behind the grill too. but im going to keep the stock rims. you dont look like a cop rollin on 24's lol... have you gotten any trouble about it from the local PD?
@Mudkipz2123 why would you? it's completely legal to own ex police cars, however..don't put police lights on them, thats only legal in a very select few states..everywhere else it's impersonating a police officer and you will get charged/fined
yo man i gotta say that sounds incredible what exactly do you have in the engine other than the 40 series beacause i want my interceptor to sound just like that!
not to sound like a know it all,but this would sound so much better with tail pipes.i ran my 77 ltd 351w super turbo's like this for a while,rummbled me out of my seat,when i put tails on it,it sounded like bigfoot! i also gained hp-trq because the tails cause a scaviving effect on the mufflers. i think you would like it better that way.
yeah maybe but i like how it sounds on my new video i just put on here with 2nd set of cats taken off it sounds like a mustang i dont care for tailpipes because it has that slap sound that i dont like.you check out my new video.
yea. all my lights flickered on and off, the same as you said, just keep me posted if that fixed your light problem it should be about two of them in that same spot, it should be the one closest to tha left hand side. anyways ima post a video of my p71 with tha 40 series flomasters on it. i hope it fixed your problem, i am pretty confident it did
the circuit breaker is where the fuses are in the inside on driver side under stering wheel. its one of the silver looking things, it kinda looks like a fuse itself but bigger, but they are just a 3 dollar part at any parts store. The old one i had was an 18amp i just went along and bought an 20amp, just so happy dont have to woring about my headlights anymore. mines were doing the same thing, everything was going out ,dash,tailights,side,and head. but know i have an intake manifold leak $400!
thanks for letting me know about how you fixed it im about to change that breaker out to and i hope the problem will be fixed to so did your headlights taillights and inside lights all flicker on and off all at the same time cause thats what mine do.
let me guess you have the same headlight problem as i had right the whole light flickering issue well do you have the original owners manual to the car cause if you do its the number 12 in the fuse box. i replaced mine with a 30 amp breaker. let me know
ok but i found wich 1 is the circuit breaker but the manual says its 4 the power windows and DDM (wat ever that is) but its a 20 amp so if it is da right 1 howmany amps should i get? thanks 4 ur help
well what year is your car if its 03 and newer then the breaker would probly be under the hood but if your car is like mine 99 then it would be under the dash so if your still having this problem after you try replacing the breaker under the hood if its a 03 or newer then maybe its the lighting control modual get back with me and let me know.
i found out what the problem to mines were. it was just the simple circuit breaker. i replaced it 2 months ago and haven't had anymore problems with the lights clicking on and off anymore.
well heres the thing with that my dad works on cop cars and he had a car with this same problem and took it to ford and they thought it was the lighting control modual box but it wasnt so they said they cant figure it out so i dont even know what to do really it sucks because every time im driving not just the headlights but all the lights including the dash lights turn on and off its crazy.
i am having the same problem with my p71 headlights cutting on and off, they will work about 30 min, then click off, its getting annoying. but i think its the relays in the lcm(lighting control module)the relays are rated at 10amps,but there are 8 or more amps giong through them, making them hot and shutting lights off. a new lcm runs about $345 on ebay, dont wont to spend that money for a part that they should have had a recall on
The issue with the lights is not the lighting control module my dad works on police cars and we've changed out the modules but the problem still acurred i beleive the problem is fords lovely wiring,because the wiring harness tends to rub through the fender well opening and create a dead short.
check the wires. my headlights did that, too. its because the wires right by the lights had been spliced to rig up a wig-wag system. after the wig-wag was removed, they just covered the unprotected wire with electrical tape. it worked for years, but the wires began to corrode (electrical tape has a limited lifespan). just cut out the section of bad wire and replace it with fresh wire from any store and it should work fine, assuming that's the problem.

check the wires. my headlights did that, too. its because the wires right by the lights had been spliced to rig up a wig-wag system. after the wig-wag was removed, they just covered the unprotected wire with electrical tape. it worked for years, but the wires began to corrode (electrical tape has a limited lifespan). just cut out the section of bad wire and replace it with fresh wire from any store and it should work fine, assuming that's the problem.
